knowing that a man is not justified by works of the law but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we also have believed in Jesus Christ, that we may be justified by faith and not by works of the law, because by works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Is the law then against the promises of God? By no means. For if a law had been given, able to give life, righteousness would really have been by the law;

For by a law I have died to the law, that I may live to God.

For as many as are of works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, Cursed is every one that continues not in all things written in the book of the law to do them.

Tell me, you that wish to be under the law, do you not hear the law?
